“A human being is nothing but a story with skin around it.”

“There are no white skins, and there are no black skins. Humans skins are of different shades of orange.”

“Without stories, we wouldn't be human beings at all”

“Stories are the most important thing in the world. Without stories, we wouldn't be human beings at all.”

“The questions I want to ask will revolve around humans, connection, relationships, family, and stories - what are the stories we tell ourselves and each other?”

“All writers start with a layer of truth, don't they? If not, their stories would be nothing but spools of cotton candy, a fleeting taste wrapped around nothing but air.”

“Being alone has nothing to do with how many people are around.”

“We are all brothers under the skin - and I, for one, would be willing to skin humanity to prove it.”

“T’ain’t no sin to take off your skin, and dance around in your bones.”

“We are all human beings—the same human beings. Don’t categorize that you are yellow, you are white, you are Black, and white is better than yellow or Black or any other skin color. That’s stupid things to compare. We are all different and beautiful.”
